Get Invalid Cursor State When Modifying A Table In SQL 2000
Jul 3, 2007When I try to modify a table that I just created I get the following error message: - Unable to modify table ODBC error:[Mircrosoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver] Invalid cursor state.
SP3 has been applied to SQL Server 2000.
Can anyone help explain what is causing this error? There is sufficient space for the database and transaction log.

[SQL Server 2000] How Can I Create Cursor For A SQL Statement?
Jul 26, 2006I have a SQL statement stored in a SQL varriable (after a lot of conditions)
Code:
declare @sql char(100)
set @sql = 'select ma_kh, ten from _khang'
Now, I want to create a cursor to recalculate some values
I've tried:
Code:
declare cur_T cursor for exec(@sql) open cur_T
but it doesn't work.
Can I have another way to do that???
Moving From 2000 To 2005: Issue Accessing Cursor Returned By Sp
Apr 28, 2006I have a number of triggers that call a stored procedure that returns a cursor. The triggers then use the results of this cursor to do other actions.
My problem is that this works fine in SQL2000 but just won't work in SQL2005. When I try to access the results of the returned cursor, I get an error -2147217900 could not complete cursor operation because the set options have changed since the cursor was declared.
If I port the code contained in the sp into the trigger, it runs fine. But having to port over the sp's code defeats the whole concept of being able to re-use the sp.
Does anybody have any ideas of what could be going on?
I look forward to a quick response.

Putting Data Into Table B From Table A Without Using A Cursor
Aug 24, 2006on SQL Server 2005, no SP.
Currently using a cursor in a stored procedure to retrieve data from one table and to put it into another table. like so:
declare @HTR money
declare @Uniqueid varchar(15)
declare cur_HTR cursor for
select uniqueid, sum(hours_to_resolve) as thtr from com_trail_helpdesk_module group by uniqueid
open cur_htr
fetch next from cur_HTR into @Uniqueid, @HTR
while @@fetch_status = 0 begin
update com_hpd_helpdesk_history
set total_hours_to_resolve = @HTR
where case_id_ = @Uniqueid
and dateasat = @dateasat
fetch next from cur_HTR into @Uniqueid, @HTR
end
close cur_htr
deallocate cur_htr
...
This is taking about 45 minutes each time to do 21k records. Is there a faster, better way to do this?
SQL 2000 Partitioned View Works Fine, But CURSOR With FOR UPDATE Fails To Declare
Oct 17, 2006This one has me stumped.
I created an updateable partioned view of a very large table. Now I get an error when I attempt to declare a CURSOR that SELECTs from the view, and a FOR UPDATE argument is in the declaration.
There error generated is:
Server: Msg 16957, Level 16, State 4, Line 3
FOR UPDATE cannot be specified on a READ ONLY cursor
Here is the cursor declaration:
declare some_cursor CURSOR
for
select *
from part_view
FOR UPDATE
Any ideas, guys? Thanks in advance for knocking your head against this one.
PS: Since I tested the updateability of the view there are no issues with primary keys, uniqueness, or indexes missing. Also, unfortunately, the dreaded cursor is requried, so set based alternatives are not an option - it's from within Peoplesoft.
Table Name And Cursor
Mar 27, 2006I am using MS-SQL Server 2K....
I have a stored procedure that contains a cursor. Right now, the table name for the cursor is "hard-coded". I would like to be able to "soft-code" the table name, because the table name may vary (although the fields would always be the same).
Is this even possible?
The only workaround I can think of is to use an EXEC on a real-time built SQL statement into a temp table and then cursor through the temp table.
Is there a better way to do this?
Thanks...

Cursor On A Temp Table
May 18, 2007Hi all,
I have a task of rewriting all the old procs which were build on cursors, the management does want me to remove the cursor completely since that would mean rewriting everthing.. they want to use a temp table and run a cursor on the temp table. Since there are many cursors in each proc. Any suggestions on to go about it. I am against the use of cursor any everywhere in it , even if it calls for rewriting the whole db again.
I did some tests on running the old proc and the semi new proc , which runs a cursor from the temp table for the cursor query. And it even bad than the cursor only. what does this mean? Is it really a very bad idea to run cursor on a temp table?
Necessity is the mother of all inventions!
Cursor Or Temp Table
Aug 2, 2006Hi Chaps,
I want to write a stored procedure in which I will update the all calendar week values (stored in a table). And to achieve this I will have to loop through all the records present in calendar table.
I am just wondering that should I use Cursor or TEMP table (caz of performance issues)?
As it will be part of data warehouse so all the processing will be carried out at SERVER ( means no client)
Can any one tell me that which would be the best solution ( Cursor or Temp table) in my case and WHY?
Note: I am using SQL Server 2005 standard edition
waiting for quick reply.
regards,
Anas

Aug 14, 2007Hi,
I need a small help. In my stored procedure, i create a table variable and fill it with records based on my query.

The Cursor Does Not Include The Table ... Error?
Sep 4, 2007We use a lot of virtual machines. I have a base VM with SQL 2005 installed. I rename this VM (i have multiple copies running) and run an old application (VB code, iterates through recordsets, etc.).
I get: Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Could not find server '2K3VM-DG' in sysservers. Execute sp_addlinkedserver to add the server to sysservers.
This makes sense, and I can fix it with sp_dropserver / sp_addserver [local]. Good.
The next error is puzzling though:

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Transact SQL :: STATIC Defines A Cursor That Makes Temporary Copy Of Data To Be Used By Cursor
Aug 12, 2015 In MSDN file I read about static cursor
STATIC
Defines a cursor that makes a temporary copy of the data to be used by the cursor. All requests to the cursor are answered from this temporary table in
tempdb; therefore, modifications made to base tables are not reflected in the data returned by fetches made to this cursor, and this cursor does not allow modifications
It say's that modifications is not allowed in the static cursor. I have a questions regarding that
Static Cursor
declare ll cursor global static
for select name, salary from ag
open ll
fetch from ll
while @@FETCH_STATUS=0
fetch from ll
update ag set salary=200 where 1=1
close ll
deallocate ll
In "AG" table, "SALARY" was 100 for all the entries. When I run the Cursor, it showed the salary value as "100" correctly.After the cursor was closed, I run the query select * from AG.But the result had updated to salary 200 as given in the cursor. file says modifications is not allowed in the static cursor.But I am able to update the data using static cursor.
Dynamic Cursor Versus Forward Only Cursor Gives Poor Performance
Jul 20, 2005Hello,I have a test database with table A containing 10,000 rows and a tableB containing 100,000 rows. Rows in B are "children" of rows in A -each row in A has 10 related rows in B (ie. B has a foreign key to A).Using ODBC I am executing the following loop 10,000 times, expressedbelow in pseudo-code:"select * from A order by a_pk option (fast 1)""fetch from A result set""select * from B where where fk_to_a = 'xxx' order by b_pk option(fast 1)""fetch from B result set" repeated 10 timesIn the above psueod-code 'xxx' is the primary key of the current Arow. NOTE: it is not a mistake that we are repeatedly doing the Aquery and retrieving only the first row.When the queries use fast-forward-only cursors this takes about 2.5minutes. When the queries use dynamic cursors this takes about 1 hour.Does anyone know why the dynamic cursor is killing performance?Because of the SQL Server ODBC driver it is not possible to havenested/multiple fast-forward-only cursors, hence I need to exploreother alternatives.I can only assume that a different query plan is getting constructedfor the dynamic cursor case versus the fast forward only cursor, but Ihave no way of finding out what that query plan is.All help appreciated.Kevin

Apr 10, 2008Hello,
Any help here much appreciated.
I am using sql server 2000 to perform address cleansing. there is a point in my scripting when a table i pass values to becomes read/write.
i suspect this is when i run a cursor through the table.
Is anyone able to confirm for me whether running a cursor changes a table's properties?
Many thanks.

Ps as the table seems to be read/write it is harder to tell if NULLs are in the table and this is messing with joins I have further down the track.
Returning Multiple Results From A Cursor Into A Table
Sep 7, 2007The problem I'm having is that I need a cursor to return multiple results into 1 .NET System.Data.DataTable, and I don't know if it's possible. Actually, the real problem I'm having is that whoever designed this database did a poor job and if it weren't for one small thing I could do this all with aggregates...
But more specifically, this is what I need to accomplish. I have written a cursor that I know works - when I run it in MS SQL Query Analyzer, I get the results I want, but it's returned in multiple tables. I am maintaining a .NET application with some pretty lousy performance and I'm trying to boost it up. I need to take the cursor's results, stuff them into a DataTable, and then return that table to my web application to render.
In my C# code, I am using a SqlDataAdapter to execute my query. This is what I'd like to do...
/*assume query is my working cursor, InvoiceDBConnection is not null, and dt is an empty, non-null DataTable*/
SqlDataAdapter sda = new SqlDataAdapter(query, InvoiceDBConnection);
sda.Fill(dt);
... but this doesn't work, and it makes sense, I guess...since the cursor returns multiple "tables" (not sure if that's actually how the data is returned).
So is there any way to accomplish what I want to do? Or do I have to do it the crappy way it's done now by running my aggregate query and then using a really time-consuming for loop on my results to make the necessary adjustment?
Any help is greatly appreciated
